Also Note That The PSU Website Is Wrong About The 12V at 28 amps it is actually 12v1 at 14amps and 12v2 at 14 amps

Solid gear is a crap off-brand. I would NOT trust ANY computer to that unit, honestly. It's not even a listed brand on the PSU Tier list which is generally a BAD thing, and the only relevant data that comes up when you Google it is a few serious recommendations to not use any of their power supplies on the jonnyguru forums. Those members are almost all seasoned PSU technicians who've done testing in some form or another for various sites, along with a lot of the Tom's members, and the opinion can't be ignored. I'm quite sure that were it listed, it would probably be a Tier 5 "replace immediately" unit.

Stick with Tier 1 or Tier 2 units made by, and only by, Seasonic, XFX, Antec, EVGA, Rosewill or Superflower, and only those units sold by those brands that are listed in tier 1 or 2.

Unless you're overclocking the CPU or GPU, 450w Tier 1 or 2 unit is plenty for the GTX 960.
